The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues

Meng Wenyao outside the camp didn't know what the emperor and Li Heng were planning. He only knew that when the emperor left, he told Meng Wenyao lovingly: "The sixth prince is seriously injured. You must take good care of him."

Meng Wenyao's face was full of confusion. Didn't the imperial doctor say it was fine? Why was it so serious now?

She did not dare to question the emperor and ordered meekly: "My son, I obey the decree."

After entering the camp, he saw Li Heng lying down peacefully and said in surprise: "My father just said that you were seriously injured and I was scared to death. I thought something really happened."

She said it over and over again, checking Li Heng with her hands up and down, and said with a long breath: "It's okay, it's okay. Why do you say that!"

Li Heng pulled Meng Wenyao to sit next to him and said solemnly: "Father is planning to take action against fourth brother and wants me to return to Beijing to investigate. In this way, fourth brother will rebel if he doesn't."

Before leaving the capital, the two of them had discussed the rumor that the fourth prince was planning to rebel. Now that the emperor had indeed taken the bait, Meng Wenyao was very happy.

But looking at Li Heng's worried look, he asked, "What are you worried about, Your Highness?"

"We previously spread rumors that the fourth brother was rebellious. In fact, we wanted to make the fourth brother and the fourth brother suspicious of each other and let the father take action to punish the fourth brother. Now the father wants me to return to Beijing to investigate. He is dragging me and the fourth brother out to fight to death. A physical fight."

Meng Wenyao's heart tightened, and she couldn't help but think of Li Heng's current personality. He had just come out of Leng Palace, and there was no one in the court and no generals in the army.

The emperor asked Li Heng to return to Beijing at this time. Isn't that a sheep entering a tiger's mouth?

"The Emperor wants you to go back and die? Does he want to get rid of you with the help of the fourth prince, and then convict the fourth prince, kill you two at once, and kill two birds with one stone?"

The atmosphere was a little dull for a while, and Li Heng smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't expect that in the end, he would still take me out to sharpen the knife for the fourth brother. But don't worry, my father gave me the imperial guard token. If the fourth brother and I get along, The fight is just about the same level, I just feel so cold that my father wants me to quit."

"Your Highness, since the Emperor said that you are seriously injured, why not just pretend to be sick?"

"The emperor said that I was seriously injured, but that was for outsiders to see. I will leave for the capital tonight, and I will announce to the outside world that I am recovering from my injuries in the camp. Don't worry, I still have some troops in my hands. Fourth brother doesn't know that the emperor has I may be able to take him down easily if I have a murderous intent on him and catch him off guard.”

"What I am most worried about is you. If you are here, if you are kidnapped by the imperial concubine and the emperor, I am worried that I will be beyond reach."

Meng Wenyao knew so many inside stories and so many kinds of elixirs. She said calmly: "Your Highness will go alone. I will take care of my own safety. You can rest assured."

"I have a secret guard who has been with me for many years. He was left to me by my mother. I'm leaving him behind. Please take care of him."

"Your Highness, it is dangerous for you to return to Beijing, so you should take him there."

"You stay so that I can leave with peace of mind."

The two of them stopped arguing in the end and hugged each other tightly until dark.

Under the cover of darkness, Li Heng led a group of imperial guards out of the camp and headed straight for the capital.

Several of his grandfather's former subordinates also sneaked into the capital with their troops.

A group of them entered the city in a high-profile manner, and it was difficult for the fourth prince to ignore them.

"Sixth brother, if you didn't accompany your father to hunt in the camp, why did you come back to the capital and still show off like this?"

Li Hengqian bowed politely and said with a smile: "This time I'm not coming back to play, I'm coming back to do something for my father. Fourth brother, please allow me to be an imperial envoy."

"Oh, what's going on? I'm not good at being a brother. I want you to come all the way back."

The fourth prince's expression looked very bad. Li Heng seemed not to have seen it. He pulled the fourth prince aside and whispered: "Before the hunt, the Minister of Jiannan Road said that there were barbarians making trouble. My father asked me to come back this time, so he worked hard." Came back to get urgent reports."

"Is there no urgent report from Jiannan Road?" the fourth prince asked doubtfully.

Since he began to supervise the country and first took power, he didn't go anywhere. He just watched the memorial in the imperial study.

He could memorize today's memorial, and there was no sign of Jiannan Dao.

Li Hengzuo suddenly realized, "My father said it was coming soon, but maybe it's not there yet. Don't worry, I'll wait in the palace for two days. When the discount arrives, I'll bring it to my father."

After saying that, the two brothers said a few polite words and left. The fourth prince was not stupid, but he always felt that things were a little strange.

"Go and send someone to closely monitor the Sixth Prince and the people he brought back."

After the order was given, the fourth prince was restless waiting for the result.

"Reporting to Your Highness, the Sixth Prince and the people he brought back fell asleep as soon as they came back, and they haven't woken up yet."

"Could it be that he really came back to collect the memorial? There is no need for a prince to come here specially?" After muttering, the fourth prince ordered again: "Go and keep an eye on him, and stay away so that no one will notice him."

The night was uneventful, and on the second day, the fourth prince and the sixth prince went to have lunch together to find out what was going on. The sixth prince pretended to be drunk and slept all afternoon.

"What happened?" the fourth prince asked.

"No, it's just that the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard who joined us has a bad stomach and can't get up right now. Everything else is fine."

The fourth prince lowered his head and pondered. There was a guard commander in the palace, and he was following the emperor in the camp.

One of the two deputy commanders of the Praetorian Guards had taken refuge with him and was now ill.

He couldn't get the baby out of the way, and he didn't believe that the Sixth Prince could get it off, so there should be nothing wrong in the palace.

In order to drink the sixth prince down, the fourth prince also drank a lot. After thinking about everything, he also fell asleep.

The sun was gradually setting in the west, and when the fourth prince was sleeping deeply, he suddenly heard shouts outside and the sound of weapons being exchanged.

After turning over and falling asleep, the sound became louder and louder. The fourth prince suddenly woke up. It was not a dream.

"Come on, what's happening outside!"

The fourth prince was answered by a violent knock on the door.

Soon, the palace door was knocked open, and Li Heng stood with a group of forbidden soldiers holding knives.

Li Heng looked at the fourth prince with pity and sneered: "Fourth brother, my father heard that you had the intention of treason, so he specially ordered me to come and take you to hold you accountable."

The fourth prince slowly retreated behind the guards and roared loudly: "You are slandering others. When will your Highness have the intention to rebel? If not, Your Highness is the legitimate Crown Prince, so there is no need to rebel."

"You falsely conveyed the imperial edict and deliberately framed His Highness. Aren't you afraid that Father will find out and blame you?"

The roar of the fourth prince made the imperial army on the opposite side indifferent. He said with some panic: "You are the imperial army, an army that only obeys the emperor's orders. Now you are going to follow the sixth prince to rebel?"

After the fourth prince finished his rant, Li Heng said in a funny tone: "Fourth brother, you say that others are plotting rebellion, but you don't even look down at what you are wearing."

Hearing this, the fourth prince suddenly lowered his head, and he couldn't open his eyes because of the bright yellow thorns in his eyes.

Why is he wearing a dragon robe? ?
